“The cottage was advertised as not having wi-fi , but it does!”

It would be worth adding that to your description. It was very comfortable indeed, everything to a high standard. Would definitely stay in a Sykes cottage again, this was our second one and both have been wonderful.

“A small but very pleasant cottage ideally situated in the Ludlow town center but just off the main road in a private mews arrangement.”

Ideal for a singleton or couple wanting to explore Ludlow and the surrounding area.

“The cottage was comfortable and very convenient for access to the town centre.”

We travelled by train and it was an easy walk from the station.
The flowers in the living room and bedroom were very attractive but we'd have really welcomed a pint of milk in the fridge to make a cup of tea on arrival. I travelled light and didn't bring a hairdryer so was disappointed not to find one provided as in other Sykes properties we've stayed in. The kitchen although compact had all we needed - however there was minimal information on rubbish disposal as regards recycling.We agree with another visitor that a reading light in the living room would be welcome.
Overall we recommend this cottage for a short break in Ludlow.

“Had a great time in Ludlow using the cottage as a base to explore further afield.”

Weather wasn't great which made our choice of a cottage over a hotel a good one. First time time we have used a cottage like this and took "essentials" with us but it proved not necessary as everything was already there.Was just right for two people,great location and getting the key couldn't have been easier.Parking as in most small market towns was a bit of a problem but can be worked round with several car parks to hand. Would definitely stay there again.

“Excellent visit, just what we were looking for!”

- Excellent location, only a few minuites walk to the centre of town, where you can try local food, market on everyday except tuesday (ranging of food, vintage finds and antiques)
- Brilliant walks by the river
- Accomadation was spot on for myself and my partner, immaculately clean and tidy, worked well for being self catering, perfect little coutyard to enjoy the nice weather and with the fantastic walks by the river we couldn't have asked for much more.
- We enjoyed it so much we didn't want to leave and will be defintiley returning soon.

“Lovely cottage, great location.”

Perfect cottage for two. Everything you need and refurbished to a high standard. Near centre of town but down a quiet alley so very peaceful. Wifi, TV, small kitchen and great shower. Only negative is parking in Ludlow which is a bit of a pain but cheap car park (Smithfield) is a five minute walk away and you can park in the street outside overnight. (Between 4pm and 10am)
